It's Not About Your IQ!

The other night I took the family out to dinner. We went to my favorite place in Tucson , a restaurant called "La Salsa". They have the best healthy Mexican food in town.

While ordering, a gentleman with a wheelchair entered the restaurant. It was obvious that he was homeless and not very clean either. Needless to say that no one was really paying attention to him.

Then an interesting event happened. After paying for his own food (Peter was his name) he came and sat at the table near ours. The kids were very curious, as you can imagine. Peter started communicated with the kids by exchanging smiles and some pure and innocent energy I guess.

A few minutes passed and Peter started asking about the kids' names. A conversation started between him, my wife and I. In that conversation we learned that Peter was indeed homeless since 1985, was 65 years old, spoke four languages (I can attest to that because we spoke together in all four) AND he had a degree in psychology.

At that point my wife and I looked at ourselves and couldn't believe what we heard. Then something in my mind struck me; it occurred to me that Peter was not the victim of his physical disability but that he had made a choice to be homeless. You may be thinking that there are other circumstances to his life situation, and I agree, but I am here to tell you that after speaking to him, I came to realize that it was HIS choice.

You see, Peter created a process of thinking that manifested what he did NOT want but unfortunately had spent too much focus and energy on that.

So it's not about your IQ - like Peter you maybe very intelligent, or maybe even smarter, but if you don't decide to take a daily step forward towards WHAT YOU REALLY WANT, you won't get it, and you will find yourself right were you DID NOT WANT TO BE.

Later in the car both the kids thought, and in fact said "Daddy, that man is beautiful." I think they were connected to Peter's energy, his beautiful and untouchable self, his SPIRIT. No matter what you are or do on a mental and physical plan, in your heart you are and will remain beautiful FOR ETERNITY!
